Siameses?

[clarebear]

I foster Siamese cats.

You apparently haven fallen victim to the Number #1 myth about Siamese.

'Siamese cats are mean.'

When asked why would you think that?

Reason given: Lady & the Tramp

Well, here's the news: it's a cartoon.

Unperpetuating the mean Siamese myth is one of our major efforts at
siameserescue.org

My Snowy, is a big goof. Not a mean bone in his body. And my Bella is a velcro lover cat. Malfi is an angel, he never even struck out at us when we had to debri his wounded leg for 6 weeks, nightly. How it must have hurt him.

I'm sure someone could come up with a story about a mean Siamese, but aren't there a few mean cats of every color. More so, what is happening to these cats that they need to be 'mean'. Are they provoked, abused?

(they can be weird looking critters though)

I KNOW its a cartoon lol I guess its just the thought of them being mean lol.
I just find them a bit creepy but I do love cats and even those breeds, just wondered what they are really like.

The purebred Siamese can have a sinister look with the flat skinny head, that is probably why Disney made it a villian in his movie.

But they are so sweet and have lots of personality. Some say they are more like a dog in personality. Outgoing and vocal.

My Siamese is true to that. He likes to be with people and is so intelligent. If I talk to him he tries to understand what I am saying. He also knows some words. My Tabby never tries to understand what I say. She's just a cat and goes her own way. Cute but I call her my dumb blonde. LOL

Thanks for pointing that out!
